I've been holding back a bit not to write and been looking here for a bit and really couldn't help it. Don't take this the wrong way but seriously if high pitch noises and whistling bothers you at any rpm you don't want a supercharged or turbocharged car.... Or going fast. The noises made are the beauty of making power along with a sound that leaves other car owners with their tail between their legs. Remove the blower and add nitrous if you don't like the sounds made.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Always happy to see a female member.
